I am a writer and web designer. I create, publish, and maintain a collection of websites
that I host on my own server. I have been in
the Internet business since 1995. I love the hard work and the
creativity that goes into it.

I don't
have much by way of credentials in the field of writing or web
design, but I did manage to graduate from college in 1984, and
earned an MBA from Saint Martin's
University in 1987. More recently, I studied E-Commerce at
Portland
Community College and earned a Certificate in Project Management
from Portland State
University. Beyond that, most of my skills are
self-taught.

More important
than my work as a web designer, I am a husband, father,
grandfather, uncle, son, nephew, brother, and friend to a whole lot
of great people in this world. I am a retired US Army Master
Sergeant (1973-1993). I am a
flag-waving, gun-toting, troop-supporting, God-fearing, red-blooded
American boy who supports limited government, lower taxes, energy
independence, and a tightly controlled US border. I want the Pledge of
Allegiance put back in every school. I am proud
of my country, and I support my President, whether I like him or not.

When it comes to
politics, I am not a single-issue kind of guy. I tend to be right-of-middle on most issues, and strictly conservative on others.
Having said that, I have a lot of friends who are liberal democrats, and I
don't hold that against them. I am an avid believer in the two-party
system. We need healthy debate to keep our country strong.
